Bryce Mitchell is proving to be a problem for anybody in the featherweight division.
In the co-main event at UFC Vegas 12, the former Ultimate Fighter contender used his suffocating grappling game to take Andre Fili to the ground repeatedly over three rounds to earn a unanimous decision win. While he had a battle on his hands throughout, Mitchell still picked up his fifth win in a row in the UFC with the judges giving him the fight 30-27, 30-27 and 29-28 on the scorecards.
Afterwards, Mitchell didn’t seem ready to celebrate as he was largely critical of his own performance.
